Adafruit is proud to once again run our Distributor Spotlight series, highlighting the invaluable role our distributor network plays in bringing our products to a global market. From retail brick-and-mortar stores to customers on every continent, our distributors ensure that Adafruit is able to reach diverse sectors and communities.
In 2018, we opened PiLover.com to the public because we want to share our passion for electronics/computers by providing products that match perfectly, creating an ecosystem that represents the natural evolution of the Lego bricks we grew up with and still love.
They had this to say about working with Adafruit:
Adafruit products are true gems in the world of electronics, known for their high quality and suitability for both educational purposes and prototyping at various levels of complexity. Long before we became Adafruit resellers, we were passionate supporters of the brand, recognizing the meticulous attention to detail and the versatility that make their products seamlessly integrable into any project. Most Adafruit devices also come with tutorials, datasheets, and additional resources, providing clear guidance on each component’s use and technical specifications. We wholeheartedly believe in the potential of their products and deeply appreciate the human element behind the company. With remarkable creativity, they inspire a love for electronics in people of all ages.
Adafruit publishes a wide range of writing and video content, including interviews and reporting on the maker market and the wider technology world. Our standards page is intended as a guide to best practices that Adafruit uses, as well as an outline of the ethical standards Adafruit aspires to. While Adafruit is not an independent journalistic institution, Adafruit strives to be a fair, informative, and positive voice within the community – check it out here: adafruit.com/editorialstandards
Stop breadboarding and soldering – start making immediately! Adafruit’s Circuit Playground is jam-packed with LEDs, sensors, buttons, alligator clip pads and more. Build projects with Circuit Playground in a few minutes with the drag-and-drop MakeCode programming site, learn computer science using the CS Discoveries class on code.org, jump into CircuitPython to learn Python and hardware together, TinyGO, or even use the Arduino IDE. Circuit Playground Express is the newest and best Circuit Playground board, with support for CircuitPython, MakeCode, and Arduino. It has a powerful processor, 10 NeoPixels, mini speaker, InfraRed receive and transmit, two buttons, a switch, 14 alligator clip pads, and lots of sensors: capacitive touch, IR proximity, temperature, light, motion and sound. A whole wide world of electronics and coding is waiting for you, and it fits in the palm of your hand.
